Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Strengthening
Review: I like how this book applies itself more towards strengthening an existing relationship rather than fixing a broken one (although the techniques presented are applicable to both situations). In fact, the content of this book could easily be applied to non-romantic relationships as well. The authors style and liberal use of applicable anecdotes yields an easy and enjoyable read. I will be sending copies to both of my sisters.

Summary: Inspiring, encouraging, helpful book
Review: I was delighted with this book's uplifting and practical messages, as well as with the lovely prose. I have little pieces of yelllow sticky notes poking out of the book at places where I want to be able to find again certain poetic, well-turned phrases. Anyone who wants to become a better loving partner can find inspiration and concrete ideas in the well-organized, concise sections, stories that illustrate each section, and "questions to ask yourself" at each section's end. As a therapist, I see multiple ways to use the information in this book to help couples create more mutually satisfying relationships.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Inspiring, encouraging, helpful book
Review: I'm glad I bought this book in hardback, because I plan to read it again whenever I feel the need for a "relationship tune-up." The beautifully crafted prose makes reading "Marriage From the Heart" a pleasure, while stories straight from the heart illustrate the authors' points and personalize the lessons within the eight commitments. I have already purchased a copy to give to a newly-wed couple, but this is also a book that has something for couples at any stage of a relationship.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wisdom from the Heart
Review: Marriage from the Heart is one of those books that doesn't come along often enough. The text is chock full of words of wisdom to share with friends and loved ones from authors who have obviously learned the truths contained therein from the trenches. This book does not belong on a dust collecting bookshelf, but on the nightstand or on the coffee table to be referred to frequently, by couples young and old, sharing relationships fresh and tarnished. Marriage from the Heart breaths new life into the self-help genre with its weaving of life experience with a good dose of philosophy and psychology, a dash of theological insight, and a splash of humor towards life's challenges, making it a perfect recipe for an open, honest, and lasting relationship.
